Citigroup's managers and consultants working on CEO Jane Fraser's reorganization have discussed job cuts of at least 10% in several major businesses, CNBC reported on Monday, citing people with knowledge of the process. The bank did not immediately respond to a Reuters request for comment. Citi had said in September it would strip out a layer of management and cut jobs in a sweeping reorganization that would give Fraser more direct control as she seeks to simplify the Wall Street giant and boost its stock price.  ( 33 min )

BioNTech stock has dropped 36% this year as demand fell for its Covid-19 vaccines produced with Pfizer.  ( 20 min )

Hedge funds last week "aggressively" bought U.S. stocks at the fastest pace in two years, said a Goldman Sachs note, with traders jumping into a stock rally fuelled by hopes that the U.S. central bank rate pause might stick. This left some caught in a squeeze, the bank said in a note on November 2, when short positions became too expensive to hold as stock prices rose. Many got tangled up trying to flee crowded trades which became losing positions, Goldman Sachs said in that note.  ( 33 min )

BioNTech has cut its 2023 revenue target by about 1 billion euros ($1.1 billion) on lower demand for the COVID-19 vaccine made with Pfizer but said the impact from write-downs at its U.S. partner was less then initially thought. In a statement on Monday, the German biotech company cut its outlook for full-year COVID-19 vaccine revenues to about 4 billion euros from 5 billion previously expected and the 17.2 billion reported last year. BioNTech, which relies on vaccine-related profit share payments from its U.S. partner for much of its revenues, said that write-downs reported by Pfizer in mid-October would reduce its third-quarter revenues by 508 million euros, compared with up to about 900 million initially flagged.  ( 33 min )

Lyft's price cuts may have helped the ride-hailing firm make a small dent in Uber's U.S. market share, but not enough to prevent the bigger rival from reporting its second quarterly operating profit.

The average price of a standard Lyft ride as of September-end was more than 4% cheaper than Uber's similar service, according to data analytics firm YipitData, a big change since February, when both the companies were charging nearly the same price.  ( 34 min )

China recorded its first-ever quarterly deficit in foreign direct investment (FDI), according to balance of payments data, underscoring Beijing's challenge in wooing overseas companies in the wake of a "de-risking" move by Western governments. Direct investment liabilities - a measure of FDI - were a deficit of $11.8 billion during the July-September period, according to preliminary data of China's balance of payments released late on Friday. That's the first quarterly shortfall since China's foreign exchange regulator began compiling the data in 1998, which could be linked to the impact of "de-risking" by Western countries from China amid growing geopolitical tensions.  ( 32 min )
